Well, now, that sounds interesting, but given all the other
interesting information I'm thinking that I will just stick with
chickens. I've made progress with explaining to Louie that he DOES NOT
EAT THE DAMN BIRDS. Teaching him not to eat loose bunnies would
probably stretch things a little too far. I can always go out with the
.22 and hunt up a bunny if I get the urge, but I don't really see a
point in raising rabbits if they don't taste much different from
chicken.

Woooo. Saved again.
